CrowdStrike has unveiled a powerful new integration with the OpenAI ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API, aiming to boost visibility and tighten governance for AI agents rapidly reshaping enterprise workflows. With this update, CrowdStrike’s Falcon Shield now detects GPTs and Codex agents created within OpenAI’s ChatGPT Enterprise. This expansion enhances its already robust support for over 175 SaaS applications.

As the leader in AI-era cybersecurity innovation, CrowdStrike continues to empower organizations with stronger oversight over both human and AI agent identities. This move comes at a critical time, as more enterprises adopt agentic AI to automate tasks at scale sparking a surge in autonomous agents across SaaS environments.

However, this rapid proliferation of AI agents poses significant challenges. Enterprises often lack visibility into what these agents do, which systems they access, or who created them. These agents operate under persistent non-human identities, which can be hijacked if a human user is compromised. Once breached, attackers can extract data, manipulate systems, or move laterally across key business applications. As a result, the growing number of AI agents is dramatically increasing the potential attack surface.

To address this evolving risk, the new Falcon Shield integration offers deep governance capabilities tailored to AI-driven automation. It maps each AI agent back to its human creator, flags risky behaviors, and enforces security policies in real time. When used alongside Falcon Identity Protection, the solution ensures comprehensive visibility and protection across all identities both human and AI.

Elia Zaitsev, CTO at CrowdStrike, emphasized the urgency of securing this new digital frontier: “AI agents are becoming superhuman identities able to access systems, execute workflows, and operate at machine speed. As they multiply across SaaS environments, they reshape the enterprise attack surface. Falcon Shield and Falcon Identity Protection are built to secure this layer of identity before adversaries can exploit it.”

CrowdStrike’s Falcon Shield offers multilayered protection by:

  • Identifying AI Agents Across SaaS: It discovers GPTs, Codex agents, and other AI tools within ChatGPT Enterprise, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Snowflake, and more enhancing visibility for security teams.
  • Linking Agents to Human Creators: It enables accountability by tracing each agent’s origin to a human user, while managing permissions contextually.
  • Spotting Risky Behavior: It analyzes identity and data interactions to highlight overprivileged or suspicious AI activity.
  • Automating Threat Response: It leverages Falcon Fusion, CrowdStrike’s no-code SOAR engine, to automatically neutralize threats by blocking access or disabling compromised agents.
  • Delivering Unified AI Agent Security: By combining Falcon Shield, Identity Protection, and Cloud Security, CrowdStrike offers full-spectrum control over AI agent operations linking creators to cloud resources securely.

Ultimately, this integration marks another strategic step in CrowdStrike’s mission to redefine cybersecurity for the AI-driven enterprise landscape.
